Wicked Anime

In spirit of the greatest movie in the Universe being released, John Wick, we started speculating how old the title character was in the movie. While Keanu Reeves is pushing his mid 50s, John is a little ambiguous, due to Reeves being an immortal and all. Then, we talk about anime! Join Jonstar, AFLM, Evan, Derek, and Greg as they talk about what’s happening in anime and what’s old! PLUS – Maid café spells, punching out periods, and the branches of furryisms!  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

“Gotta’ Go Fast!” is probably a familiar catchphrase to you. For those of you who don’t know, Paramount pictures originally said it when they were telling the artist how to design 3D Sonic for the new Sonic the Hedgehog movie. In honor of the pure art that is the live-action adaption movie of a video game, we’re gonna talk about ‘em all! Join Jonstar, AFLM, Evan, Derek, and Greg as they talk about what’s happening in anime and what’s happening with Sonic’s face! PLUS – Cute cells, Metal is for everyone, and Uwe Boll!  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
